9,10-Bis[methoxy(trimethylsilyl)methyl]anthracenes (24), synthesized from 9,10-dilithioanthracene (26) and bromomethoxytrimethylsilylmethane (27, 2 equiv), decompose (550-650 °C/10-3 mmHg) carbenically to dibenzo[b,f]pentalene (28, >48%). 9,10-Anthryldicarbenes 39 or their equivalents convert to pentalene 28 rather than di-peri-cyclobutanthracenes 30 and 31, benzobiphenylene 32, or extended rearrangement products 33-38. Formation of 28 from 24 raises questions with respect to the behavior of 1,3,4,6-cycloheptatetraenyl-1-carbenes 49, 2,4,5,7-cyclooctatetraenylidene 51, 2,5,7-cyclooctatriene-1,4-diylidene 52, 1,2,4,5,7-cyclooctapentaene 53, and bicyclo[4.1.0]heptatrienyl-1-carbenes 54 and to carbon-skeleton and hydrogen rearrangements of anthryldicarbenes 39 and/or their equivalents at various temperatures. 1,5-Bis[methoxy(trimethylsilyl)methyl]anthracenes (25), prepared from 1,5-diiodoanthracene (63) and methoxytrimethylsilylmethylzinc bromide (57, 2 equiv) as catalyzed by PdCl2(PPh3)2, yield the di-peri-carbenic reaction product 1H,5H-dicyclobuta[de,kl]anthracene (30, >40%) on pyrolysis at 550-650 °C/10-3 mmHg. Proof of structure and various aspects of the mechanisms of formation of 30 are discussed.
